I've got two questions about the iSkin:
1) How much thicker (actual measurement) is the 30GB iPod with an iSkin on it? (or, just what is the thickness of the 30GB iPod with an iSkin on it)
2) How easy is it to slip one of these into a pocket? A lot of the time my iPod resides in my pocket and if having the iSkin will make it tougher to get in and out of my pocket?
Thanks!

not much thicker maybe 3/32 i think and no its not hard for you to take in and out of your pocket.
It is 2.5mm thick
If you want to put it in your pocket put the free zip case on our eXo'd iPod and it will slide in and out of your pocket with ease.

that's 2.5mm thicker total? or would it be 2.5mm on each side, making it 5mm thicker?
Also, nice tip about the zip case, though are they pretty rubbery without the case? Would they not slip in too easy?
(And thanks for all the quick responses, Lajo)

each side, later I will give you an accurate measurement.
Silicone is very soft it would make the best suction cups, they do not use it for suction cups because it is too expensive. It would take more time to explain and I am on my way to the factory now, later.

Yea, Carlin's pictures are great. However, I've been looking over a lot of pictures and still have quite a few questions....I wish I knew someone with one I could play with, or knew a place I could try them!!
The only solution is that more retailers handle eXo so that you can see them live. It is interesting how slow the retailers are to catch on, it seems like they are living in the age before the internet, totally unaware of what is going on. You may have to wake them up.....remember ithe customer rules

yes the ipod is about 5mm thicker with the exo on. But for the protection that it gives its worth it.if you have the screen protector on then you can slip it in your pocket with either the maclear or not on the ipod. The maclear makes it easier but it prettymuch disbables use of the buttons.

Any more info on this?
I think you will not go wrong with the color you have a gut feeling for.

Well I was curious about the "accurate measurements." I think it'd be something worthwhile to advertise on your site.
